Our release means we are liberated from the prison bars of our own thinking. We refuse to make Satan the subject of our focus for that is futility. We see His victory and appropriate it. Godliness is appropriated and God takes us over because we believe His Word. (72 min.)

June 20, 1979 Wednesday A.M. Hono.
On the north shore of Oahu the Holy Spirit, grieving, revealed what organized Christianity had done to the Island people and is doing to the whole Body of Christ now. The vision reaches into the purity of the Kingdom to come when the money changers will again be driven from God’s House. Will not judgment begin with the smug religious den of thieves? This tape is a land mine that the Babylonian dedication will explode. It will be a controversial tape but it will be the sting of Christ’s whip on the back of the money changers and a clear prophecy to ecclesiastical and financial Babylon. To the thousand prophets, this is excellent. (60 min.)

THE VEHICLE INTO THE KINGDOM
November 24, 1974 Sunday A.M. Val.
Now hear this!! The requirements of the disciples of the Kingdom have not changed. Read it again! Luke 9:52–10:27.

This chapter gives the ministry of the seventy as a perfect foreview of the coming Kingdom evangelism.

FIRST AND FOREMOST–THE KINGDOM
November 24, 1974 Sunday A.M. Ana.
As the gospel of the Kingdom is proclaimed more clearly, the hearers are challenged with the demands of discipleship. Can the Lord be first always? Can we seek first His Kingdom? Are we loyal or dedicated to anyone or anything more than to the Lord and His Word and to our proclaiming that Word?

PHILEMON
Paul’s letter to Philemon is his personal plea on behalf of the runaway slave Oneisimus. This epistle displays the wisdom of God in establishing the various relationships in the Body of Christ.
